Bag Love - Select







First bag: £15
Second Bag: £8


A bit of a different post today, I've been off my game at the moment with flat hunting, work, job hunting and feeling a bit glum after flying back to England! Sorry about the lack of blogs.

I picked up these two bags in Select before I left on my travels. The first is clearly a dupe for the Alexander Wang Rocco bag, which everyone and their uncle has a dupe for (and has had for a very long time). But I am impatient and sometimes can't wait for ebay purchases to be shipped from China. This is the first time I've seen a bag like this on the British High Street. I snapped it up as I needed a sturdy, plain black bag for while I was away and it has been the most used bag I've ever owned! However, if you think of buying this bag, do have a good whiff of the bag first (classy lassy) because mine has an awful smell that I only realised after taking the tags off, I think it's the glue that holds it together, it just smells like rotten plastic and no amount of perfume or deodorant has taken it away. Nevertheless, it's my favourite bag in the world.

The second looks just like the one that's a whopping 30.. (something?) British pounds in Topshop. I lusted after the toppers one for so long but this one caught my eye in the nick of time as I've never paid over £20 for a bag in my entire life! This one doesn't have the gluey smell though so thumbs up!

I am loving Select at the moment, it can be hit or miss, sometimes I want everything in store and other times I don't like anything in store at all. It can vary a lot but I always think it's worth a nosey!

I might do a haul of my sales goodies or is it a bit late? :)

  1. I love both of these all though I've never seen a Select in my life! I always see bloggers talking about it but I've never heard anyone I know talking about it. Maybe they only have them in England x
